All solutions presented by a vendor should conform to the baseline requirements as detailed in Section 4. Solutions presented by a vendor that do not follow these requirements may be disqualified or sent back to the vendor for updating. The Wireless Classroom Initiative (WCI) provides funding for solutions meeting the baseline requirements only. Any additional work/upgrades not included in the scope of the WCI will not be reimbursable using WCI funds, and it will be the responsibility of the LEA to cover the additional cost. (For example: The WCI provides funds for as many 802.11n WAPs that a school requires, but not upgrade modules for 802.11ac. These modules would be the sole financial responsibility of the LEA).Following the successful completion of the project, the vendor is to provide a minimum of one day of training on the proper configuration, daily operation, and maintenance of the system. This training shall be performed on-site at a mutually agreed upon date at the local school district’s requested sites. The training will be for no more than 10 individuals who work directly for, or closely with the Technology Department. This training session may be recorded on audio & video. The vendor will provide at minimum 2 copies of all installation, configuration, and training materials. This includes any and all materials offered by the vendor deemed to be helpful in the day to day operations of the system. In addition, a digital copy of these materials would be preferred but not required.We, the vendor, have read and fully understand the notes regarding requirements of the wireless solution above.?Yes?NoSECTION 5: PROPOSED SOLUTIONPlease use this section to include an executive summary of the proposed infrastructure. Things relevant to this section that should be noted below include:Issues/problems that may arise during the installChanges that need to be made to building structure/other construction requirementsNotes about the layout of the network and location of various componentsHow the suggested solution will handle maintaining user profiles/authenticationAny other information the vendor would like to includeAccess Point LocationsThis section can be used to record the location and any signal readings for the proposed Access Points. If taking pictures during the initial site survey is disruptive to the school, a notation of the anticipated placement of WAPs on diagrams and heat maps is sufficient. Pictures of WAP placements are still required for the post-implementation walk-through. If available, include a photograph of each place where an AP will be installed, and include any installation notes for changes that have to be made to support deployment (including difficulties related to wiring). It is acknowledged that different brands and models of access points have different capabilities such as power output, range, and number of simultaneous connections - ranging from dozens to multiple hundreds of devices at the same time. Regardless of the solution proposed, access points and their placement within a building should provide sufficient density, bandwidth, and signal strength to cover all students located within the area that access point is designed to cover. While in some cases this results in a situation with one access point per room, it is not a requirement.There are no specific restrictions on the placement of the access points. Depending on the specifications of the equipment used in the wireless solution and the student population within wireless range, one access point may be capable of providing coverage to more than one classroom. Therefore, the situation may exist where multiple rooms can be covered by a single WAP located centrally to those rooms. When designing the wireless solution, vendors should operate under the assumption that students may have up to 3 wireless devices per person. In the event of an access point failure, the solution must expand neighboring access point coverage to eliminate any uncovered areas and provide basic wireless access for at least one device per student. Each Access Point should have an identifier that corresponds to its place on the AP layout/coverage map later in this document.ID/NameAP ModelLocationNotes/Other DetailsPicture of proposed AP locationWAP_00Linksys WRT54GRoom 305Center of ceiling This is an example. Please delete me!Coverage/AP Layout MapsUse this section to include maps of the facility. Maps should indicate the following:Distinguish between classrooms/libraries and other areas (remember that only classrooms and libraries are eligible for wireless under the WCI)MDF/IDF locationsAccess Point locations and namesCable routes and drop locationsInfrastructure locations (switches, controllers, etc.)Expected outer boundaries of coverage and heat mapsNote: Maps should distinguish whether hardware shown is pre-existing or part of the proposed solution.Diagram of Network InfrastructureUse this section to include a diagram of the network infrastructure. It should be created in MS Visio if available, and also identify (at minimum):VLAN or Zone SegmentationDevice naming conventionPower needsData ports used/availableNote: Diagrams should distinguish between the layout of current infrastructure and post-implementation infrastructure. SECTION 6: EQUIPMENT/PARTS LISTCurrent equipment that can be repurposed/reused for solutionEquipment Model & DescriptionQuantityOld PurposeNew PurposeCurrent equipment that can be removed as it is no longer usefulEquipment Model & DescriptionQuantityReason for removalAction Taken(disposed/recycled/left with LEA)New Hardware that needs to be purchased (in-scope expenses)QuantityModel NumberDescriptionNew Hardware that needs to be purchased by LEA (co-shared expenses)Note: This section is provided for the vendor to list any hardware where the cost should be split between the WCI and the LEA. For example: If the LEA requires a 24 port switch that costs, but would rather upgrade to a 48 port switch, the WCI will still cover the cost of the required equipment as in-scope. The remaining cost (co-share) is the responsibility of the LEA. This should be reflected in the cost breakdown as well. QuantityModel NumberDescriptionNew Hardware that needs to be purchased by LEA (out-of-scope expenses)Note: This section is provided for the vendor to list any hardware that is considered out of scope, but the LEA wishes to include. For example: If the LEA wishes to add wireless to a room not covered by the WCI during implementation, they are free to do so, but all out-of-scope expenses are their responsibility. This should also be reflected in the cost breakdown. QuantityModel NumberDescriptionSECTION 7: COST BREAKDOWNTo facilitate the payment process, RIDE is asking that vendors categorize the cost breakdowns according to the type of equipment/service (MDF and IDF Equipment, Controllers, APs, Cabling, and Vendor Services). The example provided on the following page is for reference only. Please include your own cost breakdown with this document. The vendor should note that the LEA may request additional discounted pricing from an OEM for the purposes of WCI, and that the vendor may be asked align quotes with that special price list.????????MDF EQUIPMENT??Part #DescriptionQty.Unit PriceTotal Price ?1234567891048 Port Gigsbit Switch w/ PoE+1$0.00 $0.00 ?1112131415Switch Software Lisence1$0.00 $0.00 ?16171819202Network Module1$0.00 $0.00 ?1222324Rack Mounting Hardware1$0.00 $0.00 ???IDF EQUIPMENT??Part #DescriptionQty.Unit PriceTotal Price??1234567891048 Port Gigsbit Switch w/ PoE+2$0.00 $0.00 ?1112131415Switch Software Lisence2$0.00 $0.00 ?16171819202Network Module4$0.00 $0.00 ?1222324Rack Mounting Hardware2$0.00 $0.00 ???WLAN CONTROLLERS??Part #DescriptionQty.Unit PriceTotal Price??2526272829Name-Brand Model X Wireless LAN Controller1$0.00 $0.00 ?303132-100WLC Software Lisence - 100 users1$0.00 $0.00 ?3334353637Other Required Network Module1$0.00 $0.00 ???ACCESS POINTS??Part #DescriptionQty.Unit PriceTotal Price??383940-80211N802.11n Wireless Access Point78$0.00 $0.00 ?414243Wall Mount Bracket for Access Point60$0.00 $0.00 ?444546Ceiling Mount for Access Point18$0.00 $0.00 ???CABLING??Part #DescriptionQty.Unit PriceTotal Price??47484950Cable, Keystones, etc.1$0.00 $0.00 ?-OR- X Drops @ $X.XX per drop1$0.00$0.00???CABLING + LABOR SERVICES?Part #DescriptionQty.Unit PriceTotal Price??N/ADesign1$0.00 $0.00 ?Installation1$0.00$0.00??Configuration1$0.00$0.00 ??Cabling (only if itemized separately from cabling equipment cost)?1$0.00$0.00?CO-SHARED EXPENSES(LEA’s Responsibility)Part #DescriptionQty.Unit PriceTotal PriceCo-shared expense for MDF 48 Port Switch (24 Required)1$0.00$0.00OUT OF SCOPE EXPENSES(LEA’s Responsibility)Part #DescriptionQty.Unit PriceTotal PriceOut-of-scope expense for additional access point in gym2$0.00$0.00Total$0.00SECTION 8: OTHER INFORMATIONIn addition to completing the above components of this template, please include the following with your submissionFull size copies of any building floor plans, coverage maps, and network diagrams.Proposed training syllabus.Any other/additional information the vendor wishes to submit.Vendor CertificationI, the Vendor, hereby certify that the information submitted with this document is true and complete to the best of my knowledge and represents the best effort of our company to complete the requirements set forth herein.
